By DMC1 Dante didn't have a problem with Sparda.

I don't defend Trish because I "like her", I defend her because the evidence is lacking. Where is the text that says she is maternal towards him? Because she scolds him about pizza? I've done the same thing when my friends do something bad for themselves and I constantly tell the m not to. Its concern for a friend, not for a son.

Its also not pseudo incestuous if Trish is not an emotional/mental substitute for Eva in Dantes mind. Much like how dating a man a heavier woman because he likes her personality doesn't mean he likes BBW.

"Training" at the end credits is speculation.

Neros mother being a prostitute is in-universe speculation. Vergil looks much older than his theorized age would be so there may be a retcon in the future. Also, just because odd fetishes exist in japan, doesn't mean that all japanese people stick them in everything. DMC and many of the anime I've seen can attest to that. All of the western dirty movies ive seen can also attest to most of those same fetishes existing in the west.
